City Social Media to Highlight Downtown Spartanburg Businesses With Contests

Are you a dedicated downtown Spartanburg visitor looking for a way beat those post-holiday winter doldrums? If so then the City of Spartanburg Podcast is very much for you.

For the first time ever on the podcast, the entire City Communications Department team gathered in one room to tell you about a pair of social media projects that might just make this January and February a bit more exciting.

First in January, thanks to an overwhelming response from local businesses, the city has planned an entire month of daily giveaways featuring many of your favorite downtown hotspots, ranging from small gift cards for a few tastey bites all the way up to a staycation package that will completely blow away all your notions about how fancy a night in Downtown Spartanburg can be.

Then in February the city has the first-ever ”Sparkies” Downtown Awards, which will give you the chance to weigh in on your favorites in 20 categories, featuring everything from best ”grab & go” lunch spot to best piece of public art.

How about that for a way to kick off 2019 in downtown Spartanburg? Looking for more details on what to expect? Listen to the City of Spartanburg Podcast below for more!
